The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis

So target civilians..that's the answer. And that's supposed to help them how?

I think most sane, logical thinking people do not want to see any harm at all come to Palestinian civilians. I truly believe that Israel is only interested in targeting Hamas and militants who are capable and willing to do harm to Israel. It is very unfortunate that civilians have to get caught up in this shit. I place the blame squarely on Hamas for making sure they surround themselves with innocent people, so that when Israel retaliates, Hamas can parade the collateral damage.

If Hamas ceased to be, and there weren't any more rockets lobbed at Israel, there would be NO Gaza bombings, period.

So when they fire rockets at Israel, hoping they hit civilians....that's helping their cause, how? They're resisting civilians?

What else do they have?

It's all they have, you would do whatever it took too if your country were being occupied by an enemy and you didn't have freedom of movement. You would fight back, no? Or would you just lay down?

The Zionists have made clear, numerous times, what they think about other races. There is something that you don't seem to be realizing, the people of Palestine LOVE their Hamas fighters and they love protecting them too. You act like their rounding people up and putting them in front of the fighters, and that's ridiculous. It's the exact same thing as YOU protecting YOUR loved ones if you were in a fight against occupation and totalitarianism.

If Israel would just offer money to bring the [Iran-backed] hamas to justice, like we did with binLaden intel, we'd see what the Palestine people really wanted.

Umm..I'm not acting like that...Hamas themselves have demonstrated that very tactic.

When Hamas randomly lobs rockets at innocent Israeli civilians, they are not "protecting the Palestinians" from anything. In fact, what they're doing is putting more of their own people in danger.

Again, if no more rockets were fired at Israel, there would be no more retaliation from Israel.

What fault is of those innocent little children beng killed? There is never a good enough reason to kill children, it is just plain wrong, watching their little bodies lined up side by side no fault of their own.

why doesn't Bibbi send the troops in instead?

at least there is less of a chance kids get killed.

Bombing them is the easy way out me thinks

They can control where the bombs land, 30,000+ plus Troops going in theres no controlling what each one of them do. Might shoot everything that moves.
